Love from our clients

Susan and her team strive for aesthetic perfection while always keeping in mind practicality and usable solutions for her clients. Working with her is a pleasure and we, at Air-Sun Screen & Awning, look forward to future co-operative projects.

Susan was gracious and thorough when meeting us to review our ideas for our backyard remodel. She listened to our needs for entertaining a large family, reducing water usage, and gave constructive ideas. We now have a gorgeous living space with native plants, pergola,  bird bath, and perfect lighting. We couldn’t be happier!

I highly recommend Susan Friedman Landscape. She and her staff listened carefully to what we wanted. On approval, she worked closely with the landscape contractor and his crew to assure we had a successful result. She is knowledgeable, professional and made certain that we got the very best result.

Susan Friedman is a creative genius! Many landscape architects can look at a space, and suggest hardscape, lawn, etc. Susan does much more than this! Susan is full of great ideas and energy. She is also very easy to work with, and willing to do whatever is needed to reach the best end result.

Susan Friedman Landscape Architecture is an excellent firm. After interviewing several others, we met with Susan. From the first meeting, the difference was obvious.

Susan was fabulous! She made our dream garden come true. She was easy to work with, could read our mind, and made it real. I now consider her a friend.

She explained the process clearly, delivered on time and with great detail. I would highly recommend Susan Friedman to anyone who wants to made their dream garden come true.

On both commercial and residential projects, Susan’s ideas and solutions are inviting and uplifting. Susan is the consummate professional and should be regarded as one of the best landscape architects in the San Francisco area.

Susan Friedman provided landscape design services for our back yard, which included plans for the hardscape, planting, and lighting.

I knew Susan was the right person for the project during our 1st meeting. She listened to my ideas, was respectful of my wishes and her plan presentation exceeded my expectations.The end result is beautiful and I would highly recommend Susan for any landscape project!

Susan Friedman Landscape and her staff did a fantastic plan for our front yard remodel and have an elegant sense of design. They took a personal interest in seeing the project to completion. I highly recommend that additional, very reasonable option, upon completion of the plans.

She is not only someone I would use again but she is someone I continue to recommend to anyone who is looking for a great landscape designer. Susan Friedman designed the yard we always wanted and we could not have been more pleased with her skills and professionalism.

Susan Friedman redesigned our side yard to solve a drainage issue and to make it more useable. It came out great! Our drainage issue is solved and I love spending time in the space. It’s beautiful.

Susan has designed beautiful drought-tolerant gardens for two houses that we have owned plus those of our friends. She is most knowledgeable on all things green and growing. I love her sense of balance in design and the willingness to work within a set budget. Susan is there every step of the way from concept to finished project.

I thought Susan was very knowledgeable, very thorough and very creative, especially in the hardscape and lighting design. Also, Susan is very gracious and willing to listen. She is an absolute delight to work with and very talented in her field. Also, she was well worth the design fee!

Susan was amazing to work with. Both my wife and I enjoyed the number of choices offered, the experience and the wealth of knowledge Susan had for every aspect of our landscaping project. As the owner of a Commercial Real Estate firm, I know the value of a solid connection for work being done by a contractor and this one is a keeper.

Susan Friedman Landscape has a real current grasp on functional, beautiful and sustainable Landscape design. As an Interior Designer, partnering with them on projects has led to fabulous and successful projects, where the outdoors and indoors are completely integrated.

Susan and her firm took care to listen to our desires and ideas, and the way in which we intended to use utilize our backyard space. She was careful to design a space for us that has proven usable, easy to maintain, that compliments our house and our lifestyle. We could not have designed and planned a space as fitting on our own – the devil is in the details, as is the magic.

Susan and her staff worked with me on a complete remodel of my backyard. After listening to what I wanted, I was very pleased with the designs they came up with. Susan helped pick out every detail for the project and was readily available to make sure it looked good and fit the space. And it’s all beautiful!

I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a landscape architect. She is extremely easy to work with; has a lot of patience and comes up with beautiful designs and in our case, incorporating childhood memories and lifestyle choices. When we are ready to start on our backyard Susan will definitely be the person we hire to work on a design for that.
